KENDALL.
The County Seat Of Hamilton County on
Boom.

To the Editor Of the Eagle.
This growing young city is situated near
the center of Hamilton county, and on the
ma in line of the A r. Sc S. +. r. R., and
on the Arkansas river Just north of the
city are the noted Kendall stone quarries
These quarries contain an exhaustible
quantity of the finest building stone in the
state, the noted Jones marble block of
Garden City being built of this stone They
are being worked extensively, and the stone
is shipped in every direction, and as far
east as Kinsley.
The soil of Hamilton is q dark. sandy
loan, and is well adapted to agricultural
purposes.
There is plenty of government land here
yet, but it is being taken no rapidly and in
. very short time there will be no more
vacant land in Hamilton county. Water is
obtained at depth of "a to 100 feet.
The spri ng boom is already here; a So
900 stone school building, two. church
buildings, "a Methodist and Presbyterian a
two story brick bank building, together
with number of dwelling houses are now
under Roadway.
The pass through the sand hills south of
the city is heing nscadamized, and when
completed it will equal any road through
these hills On the Arkansas
Real estate is changing hands rapidly.
Main street lots have doubled in value in
the last two weeks.
The Nebraska, Kansas & Cimmaron
River railroad co mpany have headquarters
here. A preliminary survey of this road
hss already been made, and ii will be built
this season. This will give Kendall
. direct outlet TO the rich coal fields in
mo Mans Land, and will open up one
of tie richest countries on the globe Ken
dali is destined to be the leading CONNER
cial city of southwestern Kansas There
afe yet splendid openings here for any one
desiring TO 60 int business. A wholesale
bort and shoe store would do well here,
and a wholesale flour and feed store would
coin money.

From Green s,nith,s Home.

To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal:
This is the home of Green Smith, whose unsa-
worry proceedings in the General Assembly are
giving an unenviable notorety to this end Of his
senatorial district. Among Republicans of this
city there is deep feeling Of Encouragement
manifest in regard to the iniudicious ''compro-
misc" entered into by Republican members of
the Legislature. The revolutionary actions bf
the Democratic members Of the Senate should
have placed the seal upon any concessions upon
the part OF Republicans. The feeling against
the ''comprenlise" among the Republicans of
Jennings is strong and universal. The compro-
mise is denounced surrender and partial
recognition of Democratic claims. The Repub-
Leans in the Legislature should have adhered to
the line marked out at the beginning and fought
the revoiutonists to the last ditch. Lieutenant
governor Robertson having been selected by a
popular majority at an election demanded and
mapped out by the Democrats, the Republicans
should have stood by him from first to last and
given recognition to none other

More Sand Wanted.

To the Editor of the Indiana rcIis journal:
The qualification Of the Republican members
of the Legislature is generally condemned by
the party in Morgan county. The gentlemen
who entered into this compact with Demo
cratic revolutionists and law-breakers must
have been aetuated by the same chicken-hearted
spirit that prompted those who, in the early
days of 1861, were ready and willing, for the
sake of peace. to concede all to the bullying de-
mands of the South. The majority in the House
had been acting in consonance with the princi-
pies of right and the State Constitution. The
majority in the Senate acted in open violation of
law, and stood in the defense of the principles of
wrong To compromise with such men, and to
surrender to them the rights of the people, is
about equal to surrender to sin and the devil.
The Journal voiced the sentiments of the Re-
publican party when it censured this action Of
our represen tatives. What they need is more
sand" and determination to defend the right
and God and the people will be their helpers

To the Editor of the Indianapolis Jou rnal

outrage and retain their seats than stand for the

Serving. it is well they hold long as possible,
for it is not likely they will get another oppor-
tunity. The Republicans of this section de-
nounce the surrender of our men to the invaders
of our rights as simply infamous. 1t was only
the day before the white flag was hosted that
the word was sent out that the House had re-
affirmed her former declaration and would not
yield single point, and the very next thing we
heard was that all was for nought. Green Smith

a Hancock County Republican View.


To the Editor OF tho indianapolis journal.
The position Of the Journal on the alleged
compromise, whereby the Republicans of the
Legislature have stultiied themselves and
rendered the reelection Of General Harrison
altogether improbable. if not impossible, meets
with tae hearty approval of the r epublcans Of
this county and the sentiment is that the
agreement is one more honored in its breach
than in its observance. It is difficult at this
distance, TO conceive what could have induced
the Republicans to entertain it for a moment,
and satisfactory explanation has been given.
1t is said, in the News Of yests rday that a
Democratic State officer had said to certain Re-
publicans of the House that in the event that
no compromise could be made, the Democratic
majority in the Senate would fire" a sufficient
numbarof Republicans to give them a two-t third 8
majority. and that then, bv of their own
number resgning the Senate would be left with
out constitutional quorum. and that they would
simply remain 10 keep their seats warm during
the session and draw their pay, leaving the SEN
ator TO be appointed by Governor Gray. That
this was tho Democratic plan, and that to pre-
vent its execution the compromise was made
Suppose the Republican Honse had unseated
Democrats whose seats We're properly contested,
and VINO were clearly not entitled to remain;

The Least of Two Evils Chosen.

In our OPINION the sober second thought Of
the Republicans of Indiana, will not approve
the dictatorial course of the indianapolis Jour

easily arouse passion and win plaudits, but 1t
will be at the ultimate expense of it's reputation
as sagacious director of public sentiment.
